https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=208782 ------- Comment #14 from hare@novell.com 2006-10-05 03:27 MST ------- No, sorry, locking is _not_ consistent. With the original st.c driver we first take the semaphore, check for the device being in use, check for the drive status and then _release_ the semaphore prior to handle the ioctls. So we'll be having an implicit synchronization by taking the lock first. The idlun patch does _not_ have that as it doesn't take the lock in the ioctl case. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
